Give Me A Break

Vic and Meghan are childhood best friends. Both vowed to take care of each other when they were still young. Soon… both of them grew up, sharing happiness and sadness together. As Meghan grew up as a pampered child, she always gets everything she wants. But for Vic, he grew up in a hard way as everything must be done by himself so he became matured and independence. Meghan moved into Vic’s house when she had a fight with her housemates for one silly reason, she wanted to go to Paris with them but they gave her lots of excuse not to go along. She felt hurt and went straight to someone whom she knew won’t make her in pain, Vic. Even though Vic told her for millions times not to act so childish but she stubbornly refused to move back. As her best friend, he just shrugged it off, maybe already knew her since young and let her taking the empty room in his place. Like a happy little girl, she agreed to follow few rules made by him. One, don’t make the place in mess. (Meghan always throws her belonging everywhere but because of this rule, she has to collect back all the things as Vic refuses to pick them up or he will pick them up but straight away throws them into the dust bin.) Second, don’t bring anyone to the house especially boyfriend. (Vic doesn’t like anyone especially man to come into his house without his permission as the house looks more like a crazy one with Meghan loves to put the flowers and things she receive all around the living room and other rooms, even making Vic’s things ‘disappear’ under her things.) Third, don’t bring any reporter to the house and no photo shooting in any part of the house. (Vic hates reporters very much.) Fourth, if she wants to go somewhere for few days, tell him first so he won’t need to cook for two. (Meghan can cook but she just pushes the responsibility to Vic, too lazy) Fifth, never tell anybody where she lives or with whom she lives with. (Vic expects Meghan to respect his privacy as he does to her.)

Give me a break

Meghan smiled, taking another gulp of red wine. Then, she continued playing with her spaghetti.

"Do you know I feel so lucky today?" Jacky said. Meghan chuckled. She actually agreed to have dinner with Jacky after two months he gave her flowers and other expensive things.

"I feel happy for you, then," she replied. He chuckled.

"So, where do you want to go after this?" he asked after they finished eating. Meghan smiled, putting the napkin next to the plate.

"I don't know. Where would you like to go?" she asked. She knew that Vic still not home, dating. She doesn't want to stay alone in the house so better spending her time with this old man even though he is not her taste. Well… one better than none. Besides, he is rich.

........................

Vic sighed, glancing at the clock several times already. Where is she? She'd never been this late before. It's already 11.52 p.m. In few more minutes almost 12.00 a.m.

He groaned, walking back and forth.

"Where is she? Doesn't she know what time is it now?" he groaned, walking to the door, checking whether she already reached or not.

It was 1.25 a.m. when the door had been opened slowly. He stirred before quickly opening his eyes.

"Meghan?" he asked, quickly approaching her. She looked at him weirdly.

"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" she asked, taking off her heels.

"I was about to ask you the same question. Do you know what time is it right now?" he asked seriously. She looked at her red leather watch, chuckling.

"Still early. Besides, tomorrow I don't have a photo shoot," she replied, walking to the kitchen. He followed behind.

"Do you know that it's wrong to sleep late, unhealthy," he said. She rolled her eyes, taking a glass of water.

"Come on, Vic. Give me a break. I'm not a little girl anymore." She left him, to her room. He stood there in stunned. Did she just say 'give me a break'?
